Wildness and Beauty in Heart of Darkness Is it possible to describe beauty and savagery at the same time? This is exactly what Joseph Conrad does throughout the book Heart of Darkness. Even though it looks like the main character Marlow stresses the negative and hostile sides of the nature in his narration, he still cannot hide his admiration. In fact, a glance at his description of the African woman in Kurtz’s station successfully helps the reader understand this admiration mixed with fright as
major problems in the quality and amount of wildness in the wilderness of our land, and both have ideas on how to fix it. Turner has very little hope that we will be able to do anything to help preserve wildness, while Callicott believes humans play a part in everything, and should do what they can to make solutions. I go on to explain the reasons why I agree more with the ideas of Callicott than the ideas of Turner. I also talk about why I think wildness separates humans from nature, and how humans
and wildness. He writes that, “ we go westward as into the future, with a spirit of enterprise and adventure,” (Thoreau). The adventure, in this case, is the new opportunities and wildness, and the enterprise being the journey to freedom. Not only does Thoreau bring this idea forth, but he supports it again by writing, “The west of which I speak is but another name for the wild… and what I have been preparing to say is that in Wildness is the preservation of the world,” (Thoreau). The wildness is
Beast within Ourselves: A Struggle of Balance between Civility and the Untamed The naturalist, activist, and author Terry Tempest Williams writes, “Wildness reminds us what it means to be human, what we are connected to rather than what we are separate from. ” Historically, the tale type of Beauty and the Beast has shied away from Williams idea that wildness is inherently human. The well-known Disney version, inspired by Jeanne-Marie Leprince de Beaumont story, focuses on rescuing Beast from his primitive
spending time out in nature made him realize that he himself has a savage and animalist side that he will never be able to fully remove from himself and could be describe more or less as “a strange thrill of savage delight.”(136) Thoreau longed for the wildness of nature, “ranging the woods, like a half-starved hound, seeking some kind of venison which I might devour.”(136) Of course Thoreau is not literally hungry, he just wishes to be primitive and
Henry David Thoreau once said “In wildness is the preservation of the world.” Thoreau was a big naturalist and was a big advocate of nature. Thoreau wrote an essay called Walden which exemplifies his love of nature and his devotion to writing about nature. In particular, chapter twelve of Walden called, “Brute Neighbors”, shows Thoreau's interest in nature and how much purer nature is then humans and their destructive ways. The whole chapter is an allegory of how unnecessary and damaging human war
feral part of her returned; Russell writes, “I threw back my head, a howl clawing its way up my throat” (250). The words, “howl”, and “clawing”, suggest that the animal part of them is still in them. In the real world, the word howl usually refers to wildness and to the wolves when they communicate and the word clawing, of course, also gives the feeling of a savage and is a bestial action. Just like the first quote, Claudette tries to change and modify her thoughts to one of a human, but the fact that
definitive diction used throughout the poem crystallises the unbeatable taste of victory. The bold and vivid physical imagery in the first stanza conveys his euphoric emotions as well as describing the physical challenges of his journey through the wildness of nature.

Urban wildness is impacted by humans as human and nature exist in the same ecosystem. One of the true majesties of urban nature is that it displays resilience despite the pressures of the metropolitan environment (Beatley, 2011, pp. 3-4).
